Today is a sad day. A day of mixed emotions. I’ve known it was coming for some time but not quite prepared myself that it was actually happening and how I would feel. Having joined on 20th October 2003, today is the day I bring to a close my 17 year career with Bromford.

I say ‘with’ rather than ‘at’ as I genuinely believe that my career with Bromford has been a two-way thing. It definitely feels that I’ve worked ‘with’ my colleagues and managers, rather than ‘for’ them. I’ve invested a lot into my time here, as I know they have with me.

After completing my degree, I was looking for somewhere to gain work experience, so I joined Bromford under no illusion that this would only be a short term stay. I had no idea then that I’d be looking back now, on the 12th Feb 2021 having completed more than 6,300 days here.

I came to Bromford as a young man, living in social housing with my girlfriend who I later married. Some colleagues shared this special day, and others; we had our daughter, brought our 1st and 2nd (forever) home. Some colleagues are now lifelong friends. I love them dearly.

I’ve learnt so much in my time at Bromford. Worked in many great teams, on some amazing projects and with some incredible people. I’m blessed to have had these opportunities. But, all good things come to an end. I’m sad this time is now over, but grateful that it happened.
